Over the years attending Brooklyn College, the staff, educators and peers have positively impacted my time here at BC. The department and professors love what they do and educate their students at the best of their abilities. They provide endless resources and support for all students to excel in all different aspects. For example, I landed a job from the career fairs, I attended a free resume workshop and got mine professionally revised. After the pandemic, professors are considerate of everyone's situations/circumstances. there may be some professors who hold an intense course but BC provides free tutoring and mental support for students to remain on track. Lastly, the location of the school is great because theirs many food options. On breaks theirs many things you can do. It can range from shopping, grabbing a bite to eat or even work in the library cafe! I honestly do not regret my choice in attending Brooklyn College.
As I am experiencing my senior year in Brooklyn College (BC), I can strongly say that I wouldn't trade my college experience with BC to any other college. Much of my experience with Brooklyn College is online as the COVID-19 pandemic lock down occurred while in my spring semester of sophomore year. However, I enjoyed the on campus and in person classes my freshman year! It was a normal freshman experience and it was so easy to meet people as everyone was so welcoming! In regards to the online learning experience, I'd say I'm even more satisfied with BC because they never left one to keep wondering or worrying. During the beginning of the pandemic when everything was still unknown, students received updates on how Brooklyn College would function, we were offered many forms of aid (much needed), and everyone was being understanding with one another. The academics at Brooklyn College are great but while experiencing the pandemic, the care BC has for students is even better.
Online classes easied the pain a bit. Not having to attend this junkyard is a plus and the transition wasn't too bad. The actual classes themselves varied in quality and some were alright while some were bad, just like normal classes.
Oh, but don't get the wrong idea. There were the bad parts. Unorganized professors made everything a lot worse. Some professor had zero empathy and understanding for students going through the pandemic and utilized strange punitive and strict rules to keep us "in check."
For some reason, the heads of some departments thought it would be acceptable and appropriate to write monster departmental finals that can set you off from an A to a D. The reasoning was to prevent cheating. So, have your GPA drop miles and your grade majorly suffering, but at least you won't be cheating!
Despite these flaw of online learning, it was a much better alternative and experience to in-person classes. I dread having to return soon.
